I'm not one to put blame on games being rigged but here is evidence that PPBJ is rigged.

Kinda sad you just blew 40k and probably your biggest win you will ever have in your lifetime.

Party BJ tried to lure me back. I played once for a few dollars (literally). They gave me a $5 bonus as a thank you for playing BJ and told me to come back and visit the tables again. I resisted. Lost the $5 playing poker.

With 40k, should have done a martingale starting at 5 bucks or so. Would have had a decent shot at winning.

I know martingale is -ev but I think the results woulda been better than you experienced.

Good luck to you rebuilding your roll dude.

You'll get it back, and next time you're at 40k you will think about what happened and how glad you are you'll never do that again.

No offense ment to anyone involved in this thread, but this thread is a wonderful example of the different psychological problems that probability causes.

You guys repeatedly make statements that essentially boil down to "I know that this would be incorrect, but I'll do it anyway."

I don't blame you at all, as I do the same. It's very hard (maybe impossible) to actually understand probability fundamentally; the best possible response is just to view things in probability as a game in which you win every time you play correctly, and ignore the actual game you're playing, which is way more complicated and can't really be understood intuitively.

So you were super multi-tabling 30/60, went on a good run and won 40k, then lost 40k on blackjack and now you're broke?

well, 'broke' in the poker sense of the word. I hadn't properly played in months and then started with 5k and super multi tabled . . went on a great poker run and then lost everything including the 5k on blackjack. So I'm going to wait a bit and then start again.

Party only allows max of 200 per bet, so yeah, 200 a hand.
